SONGS OF TRAVEL: 23 by ROBERT LOUIS STEVENSON

Poet Analysis

First Line: I HAVE TROD THE UPWARD AND THE DOWNWARD SLOPE
Last Line: AND I HAVE LIVED AND LOVED, AND CLOSED THE DOOR.
I have trod the upward and the downward slope;
I have endured and done in days before;
I have longed for all, and bid farewell to hope;
And I have lived and loved, and closed the door.
